In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  nfsd: fix possible fhcompose of wrong dentry in nfsd4createfile()  dentrycreate() can hypothetically provide a different dentry than the one passed in.  This could happen, for example, if the exported filesystem is NFS, and the server returned to OPEN a filehandle which matched a directory that was already in the dcache.  Clearly this would not be expected!  If this were to happen the dentry (child) that was already stored in resfhp could be freed and later dereferenced.  We shouldn't call fhcompose() until we are certain that we have the final dentry, so this patch moved the fhcompose() call to two places: one for the case where the target already exists, and one after dentry_create() where it was created.
